And now with the patch cables I made last night, found out my switch is faulty but it is still under warranty luckily

So... is that for work? Or are you trying to make your home Microsoft based computer as secure as a Linux...?

I didnt see any firewalls

Dont Cisco routers have that built in? I thought that was one of their prime functions...

Actually the purpose of any router is to do just that "route". The whole concept of a router having a built-in firewall is slightly miss understood. They do have firmware which have securities and they do have the ability to perform some firewall tasks however they do not have a true "firewall" per-say.

Anyway here is a nice wiki link about firewalls. Most of the information in it is there but its missing a few things.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Firewall_%28computing%29

All you really need to do is read further by click on Application Layer Firewall and Proxy Server or these links below

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Application_layer_firewall

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server

There is more information out there about firewalls if you wish to research it more but that is pretty much the Jist of it.

Also don't freak out with the "OMG I'M NOT PROTECTED!!!" trust me when I say this if someone with the knowledge wants in they will get in no matter how bad ass your firewall may be. Also a firewall does not protect you against a "Computer Virus" nor does it protect you against Ad-ware, Mal-ware, or Spy-ware. All of those are however protected through Ad blockers, Anti-virus, Anti-spyware, and Anti-Mal-ware which Mal-ware and Spy-ware and even Virus all kinda share the same thing but that is besides the point.

Oh yeah, the best anti-virus you could possibly get only protects you against about 10% of all the virus that are out there. Usually those are the most common and or well known. It is the other 90% that will get ya. If you are truly scared about getting "hacked", "Scammed" or a "Virus" on your system. Two things that will completely and totally prevent this from happening.

1.) Throw away your current computer
2.) Never buy a computer, smart phone, or programable or linked (Smart) Technology again.

There are people out there that go after all OS's including Xbox, PS3, and Wii.
